Summary Introduction

Sexually transmitted disease (STD) is referred to as a condition that spread from one person to another through sexual contact. STD is also spread through direct contact with body fluids such as semen, blood, and vaginal fluids. Syphilis and gonorrhea are ancient sexually transmitted infectious diseases. However, the overall pattern of these two diseases varies based on their major disease symptoms. Gonorrhea may cause infertility and pelvic inflammatory disease, and syphilis may cause neurological disorder, disability, and even may lead to death.
